Mobile Pipe Storage Rack for Workshop and Warehouse

Mobile Pipe Storage Rack for Workshop and Warehouse

Most workshops and warehouses lose a startling amount of floor space to something that never holds a single pipe: the aisle. Traditional cantilever racking demands permanent forklift corridors between every bay, and in a pipe yard those corridors can consume 40% to 50% of usable floor area. Herochu’s mobile pipe storage rack for workshop and warehouse applications attacks that inefficiency directly. Instead of fixed bays separated by fixed aisles, the entire rack structure travels on floor-mounted rails, opening a shared picking aisle only where and when it is needed.

Mobile Pipe Storage Rack for Workshop and Warehouse

The operating principle is straightforward. Each rack group sits on a carriage driven by a motorized system. When an operator needs to access a specific bundle of pipe, the adjacent rack groups slide laterally along the rail, creating a working aisle at the precise location of the target material. Once retrieval is complete, the aisle closes. The floor space that would have been a permanent corridor becomes storage capacity. For facilities storing 6-meter, 9-meter, or 12-meter pipe in high volumes, this shift alone can expand effective capacity by 80% to 100% without adding a square meter of building footprint.

Herochu builds these systems around the physical realities of pipe handling. Round pipe rolls if acceleration forces are too high, so the drive system maintains moderate carriage speeds of 27 mm/s and racking travel speeds of 1–5 m/min, keeping bundles stable during movement. The rail is ground-mounted and shared across shelf groups, which reduces civil work compared with overhead rail systems and suits warehouses with low clearance. A Siemens PLC handles control logic, giving operators repeatable, precise positioning without manual guesswork.

Customization is not an afterthought. Herochu tailors shelf quantity, layer count, and load rating to the material mix on site. The HC-G6053EM-5 model carries 3,000 kg per level across five layers; the HC-G9055EM-7 and HC-G12065EM-7 step up to 5,000 kg per level for heavier wall thickness and longer spans. Layer counts can be adjusted, and the system accepts optional plate supports for mixed storage of pipes and flat components.

For workshop managers who have watched valuable floor space disappear into empty aisles, the appeal is practical rather than theoretical. A Herochu mobile pipe rack converts dead circulation space into revenue-generating storage, and it does so with a structure stable enough for daily industrial use. That is not a marginal upgrade. It is a rethinking of how pipe storage should occupy a building.
